Building Bridges

Teambuilding / Conference Ice breaker

Program outline

Bridging the Divide is a powerful team building activity requiring teams to employ clever project management and customer relationship management skills to build a bridge to required customer specifications while overcoming limited resources, communication barriers and strict timelines. And, the bridge needs to be big enough, strong enough and stable enough to allow a large remote controlled vehicle to safely cross it.

Bridges can be creatively designed, decorated and branded by each team, with awards being given for the most creative engineering design, best branding, most efficient use of resources etc.

The final construction component of the event sees each teams’ bridge being installed as part of the huge, extended company bridge – thus each team is not only focusing on their task but also playing their vital role in the success of a large company project.

The exciting grand finale involves driving a remote controlled vehicle over the total length of the extended bridge.

A fun, engaging, hands on event with very powerful metaphors – where all departments of an organisation strive towards their own goals, but also play a vital role in the bigger picture of the organisation goals. The efforts of ALL teams are literally “linked” together in a powerful demonstration of the Power of One.

Learning and development outcomes

A challenging exercise where each team is both a supplier and a customer. The end goal is fully collaborative, and success requires ongoing customer relationship management and an understanding of the knock-on effects of good or poor communications.

Bridging the divide - entertraining on time management

To bridge the gap between starting a goal and finishing it, you need to remove unexpected bumps along the road.

This training teaches you how to work together on projects, grow into one team, develop a problem-solving attitude, set goals and stick to them, manage projects efficiently, show leadership, and more.

This entertraining reconciles all these concerns in order to improve your organisation’s internal operations.

Furthermore, it covers all aspects of time management.

This team building is also available as an Entertraining. As a plus, it is possible to receive a discount as a SME, through the KMO-Portefeuille.
